The Crane Inspection and Certification Bureau (CICB) has opened a new training center in Deer Park, Texas, aimed at expanding hands-on education for crane operators and riggers.
The facility spans 20,000 square feet and includes more than five paved acres of training space. It features six classrooms, a crane simulator and both indoor and outdoor areas for practical exercises such as load-moving drills using cranes and rigging equipment.
The center is intended to provide real-world training in a controlled and safe environment. According to CICB, the curriculum has been updated to reflect current industry practices and technological developments.
The new location is staffed by instructors with experience across several sectors of the lifting and rigging industries. The company will host an open house on May 30 that includes live demonstrations and skills exhibitions.
CICB offers certification and safety training programs for crane operators, riggers and other lift industry professionals nationwide.
